Support for PMA mode in VS 2019 for file comparison

Now you don't need to disable the option "Optimize rendering for screens with different pixel densities" in Visual Studio 2019 and a file comparison will be created as before. Also, we've fixed scaling of some dialogs in this mode. In general we continue to improve the scaling of our UI in the Visual Studio extension moving to modern technologies.

Improved Support for 4-5K Monitors and Usability

We have also considered a number of reports on UI for the monitors with high DPI

Improved the style of dialog boxes.
For more convenient scrolling in standalone application, we supported the Shift + mouse wheel shortcut. As for Visual Studio, we haven't introduced anything new, since you can easily get this behavior with the SideScroller extension
